2011 La Sirena Moscato Azul By Heidi BarrettMuscat from United States

$19.28

"The 2011 Moscato Azul is terrific in this vintage. All of the classic Moscato notes of nutmeg, white peaches, lychee and flowers come through beautifully. In 2011 Barrett lowered the residual sugar, opting for a dryer style that has also given the wine more energy and focus than it has had in the past. Moscato, of course, is already generous and expressive on its own, so it needs very little help in the cellar. The 2011 is the first vintage that includes fruit from Paso Robles. The wine was vinified and aged in steel, and the malolactic fermentation was blocked, all choices that resulted in an immensely pleasing white well worth taking the time to get to know. "
